Doug, I used mapquest to figure out the distance between Clinton's early boyhood home at 1011 Park Ave., where he and his family lived from 1954 to 1961, Follow the President's Footsteps Along the "Clinton Trail" and the Ramble Elementary School (now The Pocket Theater) at 170 Ravine Street (just off Park Avenue Our new building is located at the corner of Ravine and Ramble Streets off Park Avenue in downtown Hot Springs. The building is the former Ramble Elementary School auditorium which was closed as a school in the Spring of 1967 when Park Elementary opened. .

From 1011 Park Ave Hot Springs, AR

To 170 Ravine Street Hot Springs , AR 71901

Directions Distance

1: Start out going Southwest on PARK AVE/AR-7 towards BAILEY PL by turning right. 0.61 miles (0.98 Km)

2: Turn LEFT onto RAVINE ST. 0.12 miles (0.20 Km)

Total Distance: 0.73 miles

Estimated Time: 2 minutes 54 seconds

Do you really believe that Clinton took the bus every day to Ramble elementary? By the time he got to the back of the bus, he would be at his destination. LOL.

Well actually, he probably walked to school UNTIL that fateful day when ROSA PARKS refused to give up her seat. From then on he took a bus just to support her.

Good work. I knew he was fairly close to the school but didn't know the exact distance. He said he took it everyday of his life. That is an obvious lie.

How much of what he said is the truth we will never know. Did Babe Ruth really call his shot? Maybe. Only he really knew.

Neat. You did original research and came up with new facts to chew on. It's still possible that Clinton was telling the truth as Doug suggests. But the distance you established makes that unlikely.
